Christine Hsieh graduated with a B.S. in Molecular, Cell, and Developmental Biology from UCLA. She received her Ph.D. in Immunology from Stanford University where she studied NK cells in liver transplantation with Dr. Sheri M. Krams. She completed a postdoctoral fellowship at UCSF where she studied microglia and macrophages during neurodegeneration with Dr. William E. Seaman. She researches molecular and cellular immunology in traumatic brain injury, neurodegeneration, neuroinflammation, tissue injury, and most recently COVID-19.
